Revenue (× MLF)

Estimated $ per interval — energy (RRP) and FCAS (regional FCAS prices), both × MLF.

Methodology & assumptions

  • Dispatch & availability — AEMO Next Day Dispatch UNIT_SOLUTION (5‑minute intervals). Intervention intervals excluded.
  • Regional price — dispatch_price RRP matched by settlement time and NEM region (from generator registry).
  • Energy revenue (× MLF) — cleared MW × (5/60 h) × RRP × MLF.
  • FCAS revenue & volume — cleared FCAS MW from DISPATCHLOAD (raise/lower 6s, 60s, 5min, reg) × (5/60 h) × regional FCAS price × MLF. Volume is total FCAS enablement MWh across services.
  • Curtailment — estimated economic curtailment when availability exceeds dispatch target: max(0, availability − cleared) × (5/60) MWh.
  • Not settlement — estimates only. AEMO settlement applies DLF, rebids, constraints, and other factors not modelled here.

Financial overview

2026 real AUD. Monetary values are CPI-adjusted to 2026 real Australian dollars. Greenfield capex uses AEMO benchmarks when plant-specific cost is unknown.

How this was derived
Used as a proxy for solar tracking O&M because no Kiamal-specific O&M disclosure was found.

How this was derived
Proxy inference: solar PV variable O&M is effectively nil in the cited AEMO case.

Notes
No plant-specific greenfield capex figure was found in searched owner/developer/government sources. Capex therefore remains unfilled rather than using an AEMO benchmark. For operating assumptions, AEMO's 2025 draft Energy Technology Cost and Technical Parameter Review gives utility-scale solar PV fixed O&M of $12,500/MW DC/year for a 20-40 MW distribution-scale case; this was used as a proxy because no Kiamal-specific O&M disclosure was found. Total annual fixed O&M is scaled from per-MW value by the site capacity (199.95 MW). Solar PV has no fuel cost and no heat rate. The 2025 AEMO report is draft and should be treated cautiously.
